The overwhelming majority of people murdered were latinx. It's painful to see that erased across the board.
so there's some fool claiming Latinx is actually on offensive term, they see it being the same as Latin. Thoughts?
Are they offering an alternative? @ohsurvive
nope!
I've heard this from people who prefer the term indigenous (even when that's unclear), Chicano, Mexican and/or Mexican-American @ohsurvive
In this case esp, makes sense to me to describe victims as people who are from, or descend from region known as Latin Am: latinx @ohsurvive
exactly. The person taking offense says in Columbia even Latinx is offensive to them so not sure how to respond.
The person is from Colombia, and says latinx is offensive there? Didn't know this. Surprised. @ohsurvive
